378 Gongzi Liu Qi
Guan Yu walked out of Xiangyang City and walked for about fifteen miles, making sure that no one was coming, so he let Cai Xin go.
Poor Cai Xin, a young lady, is also wearing a thin body, and she shiveres from the cold in this ice and snow.
Guan Yu walked not far, and when he turned around, he saw Cai Xin curled up, trembling all over, seeing that the north wind was fierce, he was afraid that Cai Xin would freeze to death, so he immediately turned the horse's head and threw a coat he was wearing to Cai Xin.
After that, Guan Yu didn't say anything, and took Liu Bei and rushed towards Twenty Miles.
Cai Xin was wrapped in the coat thrown by Guan Yu, and her heart was warm, and as soon as she turned around, she saw Cai Mao chasing after him with thousands of troops.
Seeing each other twice, Cai Xin felt very aggrieved, and suddenly threw herself into Cai Mao's arms, crying non-stop as if she was coquettish.
Cai Mao comforted her several times, and then persuaded Cai Xin well, and was about to send Cai Zhong and Cai He to bring people to arrest Guan Yu back, but Cai Xin stopped him, saying that Guan Yu was also in a moment of embarrassment, so he would coerce himself, and when Guan Yu left, he was afraid that he would freeze to death, so he left his coat to himself.
Cai Xin persuaded hard, but Cai Mao did not send troops to pursue. Cai Xin was not at ease with his father, so he had to ask his father to take the team back to Xiangyang City, and when he arrived in the city, Cai Xin estimated that Guan Yu had already gone away, so he was relieved.
Cai Mao lost the opportunity to arrest Liu Bei and Guan Yu because of his daughter Cai Xin's obstruction, but he refused to give up, and immediately sued Liu Bei and Guan Yu to Liu Biao.
Cai Mao first came to her sister Mrs. Cai, and while crying, she told the ins and outs of the matter. said that he kindly invited Liu Bei and Guan Yu to the banquet. Who knows that these two are taking advantage of the drunkenness. actually molested Cai Mao's concubine. Caught in the air. After the incident, Liu Bei and Guan Yu resisted arrest again, thus holding their daughter Cai Xin hostage, and scared their daughter Cai Xin into a trance and delirious.
As soon as Mrs. Cai heard this, she immediately took Cai Mao to find Liu Biao and asked Cai Mao to inform Liu Biao of the ins and outs of the matter.
After Liu Biao heard this, he was furious. Immediately sent someone to arrest Liu Bei and Guan Yu. But without waiting for the person sent out to walk out of this threshold, Liu Biao seemed to remember something again, and immediately stopped the person again, Liu Bei's matter, put it aside for the time being.
Mrs. Cai and Cai Mao were very surprised, and Mrs. Cai hurriedly cried in front of Liu Biao that her niece had been persecuted, hoping that Liu Biao could make decisions for her.
Liu Biao was impatient to hear this, and immediately said aloud: "Enough! Stop making trouble! Xuande and Yun Chang are both men who stand up to the sky, and they will never do such a despicable act, I think. There must be some misunderstanding in this. As for Cai Xin's matter, I will definitely find a way to compensate for it. That's it, and no one is allowed to mention it again. Okay, I'm tired, I want to rest, you all go down! ”
Mrs. Cai and Cai Mao had no light on their faces, and they retreated in a huff. Out of Liu Biao's room, Cai Mao asked, "Sister, brother-in-law doesn't seem to believe what we say......"
"Whether he believes it or not, you just need to step up your steps and do your best to get rid of Liu Bei for me, Liu Qi thinks that if you find Liu Bei as a backer, I can't help him? As long as Liu Bei is killed, he Liu Qi will not be able to make any big waves! Mrs. Cai said.
Cai Mao thought for a while and said: "Sister, in fact, if you want to bring down Liu Qi, you don't necessarily have to kill Liu Bei, Liu Bei has been the governor of Jingnan since he served as the governor of Jingnan, and he has Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, two invincible brave generals, in addition, even Huang Zhong is also at his disposal, and Jingnan is guarded by him, which can be relieved a lot." And if you want to kill Liu Bei, I'm afraid it's not so easy to start. Not to mention that Liu Bei is always accompanied by Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, even if he is alone, outsiders can't get close. I mean, instead of killing him, we should try to recruit him and pull him to our side, so that we can isolate Liu Qi. ”
After hearing this, Mrs. Cai suddenly reprimanded: "What do you know! Liu Bei is by no means a simple character, even if he supports Cong'er, after Liu Biao is a hundred years old, who can still lower Liu Bei? Kill him, and you can prevent future troubles. Taking advantage of Liu Bei's fledgling now, I will start as soon as possible to get rid of him, and as for Liu Biao's side, everything will be borne by me. ”
Cai Mao said "snort" and said to Mrs. Cai: "Sister, there is a person under my account, who is very strong in martial arts, no less than Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Huang Zhong and others, I plan to send him to Changsha to assassinate Liu Bei." Once Liu Bei was successfully assassinated, it would be equivalent to saving a lot of trouble. ”
Mrs. Cai said: "I don't care what method you use, in short, get rid of Liu Bei as soon as possible!" ”
"Whoa!"
……
Twenty miles outside Xiangyang City, this is a small town, due to the cold weather, the snow on the ground has not melted, and it is thickly piled on the ground, blocking all the roads.
However, the twenty-mile shop is very lively, the streets of the town are all paved with green bricks, there are many shops, and the bustling crowd is endless in the town.
This is a small market town in the south of Xiangyang City, where merchants gather, and the cold weather does not reduce the hot trading in the town.
Twenty miles of shop is a front station to Xiangyang City, Jingnan, Jiaozhou, Yizhou, Yangzhou merchants gather here, because there are many restrictions in Xiangyang City, so many merchants take this place as a trading place, once they meet a suitable buyer or seller, they are not willing to go to Xiangyang City again, directly ship here.
When he walked here, Liu Bei's drunkenness had been woken up by the cold wind, and when he heard Guan Yu talk about what happened in Cai Mao's mansion, he suddenly had palpitations. If Guan Yu hadn't pretended to be drunk, he was afraid that he would never have escaped Cai Mao's intentional arrangement, once the stolen goods were captured, maybe Cai Mao had been imprisoned at this time, even Liu Biao would not believe him!
Liu Bei thanked Guan Yu again and again, but felt that this trip to Xiangyang was the right thing to bring Guan Yu to.
After the two entered the twenty-mile shop, they went directly to the Gaosheng Inn, which was the place where they had an appointment with Liu Qi and Yi Yuan.
Liu Qi and Yi Ji left Xiangyang City early and had already arrived here, but they never saw Liu Bei and Guan Yu, and they were also very anxious.
Due to Liu Qi's special status, he did not dare to show his head openly, and only let the Iraqi nationality do everything for him.
In the No. 1 room of the Gaosheng Inn. Liu Qi waited anxiously there. Liu Bei and Guan Yu have no information. He had a very unpleasant premonition, afraid that Liu Bei would have some accidents.
When he was worried, Yi came back from outside, and Liu Qi hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Mr. Yi, have you found it?" ”
Yi Yuan's face was gloomy, he shook his head helplessly, and said slowly: "No trace of them was found......
"Could it be that something has happened?" Liu Qi guessed.
Yi said: "No, Guan Yu will follow the lord's side." Guan Yu is an invincible person, with him by his side, nothing will happen to the lord, even if there is something, Guan Yu will protect the lord. ”
"It's been so long, weishenme......" Liu Qi only said this, and couldn't say any more.
Yi Ji was also at a loss, although his words were full of confidence, but in his heart he began to worry about the safety of Liu Bei and Guan Yu.
No matter how powerful Guan Yu is, he is a person after all. But Cai Mao has tens of thousands of henchmen in Xiangyang City......
Just when Liu Qi and Yi were worried, someone suddenly knocked on the door: "Knock knock knock......
"Who!" Liu Qi and Yi became nervous at the same time. They asked in unison.
"I, Guan Yunchang!" A deep voice came from outside the door.
Liu Qi and Yi were all smiling, and immediately went to open the door, the door was open, but when they saw Liu Bei and Guan Yu standing outside the door, the two said excitedly: "Come in!" ”
Liu Bei and Guan Yu entered the room, and when Yi Ji closed the door, he poked his head out and looked around, and saw that there were no suspicious characters, so he closed the door with confidence.
"Uncle! My nephew has been waiting for you for a long time, why did you come? Did you encounter something on the way? Liu Qi hurriedly stepped forward and said with great concern.
Liu Bei first sighed heavily, and then told Liu Qi and Yi Yuan all the ins and outs of the matter.
After hearing this, Liu Qi and Yi were both angry, especially Liu Qi, who hated the root of his teeth and said angrily: "I know that this Cai Mao will definitely not have any good intentions, they are trying to frame their uncle!" ”
Yi Ji said: "Since Cai Mao has already started to attack the lord, it means that Cai Mao should have known that the lord is secretly helping the eldest prince, and the lord needs to be more careful when acting in the future." In addition, the eldest prince should be more cautious, so as not to fall into Cai Mao's hands. ”
Liu Qi said curiously: "I have always been in secret contact with my uncle, and very few people know about it, how did Cai Mao know?" ”
Liu Bei said: "There is no impermeable wall, maybe we have always had people planted by Cai Mao around us, after going back this time, we will inquire about each of them first, and then pay more attention to the matters that we will contact in the future." From today onwards, everything between us will be in charge of everything Chen Zhi, and no one else can believe it! ”
Liu Qi nodded.
After that, the four of them got together for a small get-together, and after about a stick of incense, they left separately, Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Yi returned to Jingnan, and Liu Qi secretly returned to Jiangxia.
On the way back, Liu Qi kept thinking that his contact with Liu Bei had been carried out in secret, for fear of causing unnecessary trouble, so Liu Qi had always personally contacted the messenger sent by Liu Bei, and it could be said that it was difficult for outsiders to know. If someone wants to know his whereabouts, and is secretly monitoring him in the dark, then Jiangxia County, where he is located, is an extremely dangerous place, which means that he is surrounded by Cai Mao's people.
As soon as he thought of this, Liu Qi sighed for a long time, and was gloomy and sad. When he left Twenty Miles, Liu Qi had been walking aimlessly on a horse, and after walking less than a mile, there was a thinly dressed teenager lying on the snow in front of him, the young man was about seventeen years old, a few years younger than himself, but he looked extremely handsome.
Liu Qi was a kind man, and immediately jumped off the saddle, and with great effort, he lifted the man to the horse, and then found a ruined temple nearby, lit a bonfire, and put the man by the fire.
The man gradually felt warm, slowly woke up, and saw Liu Qi waiting by his side, so he squirmed his lips and asked, "What is this place?" ”
"This is Jingzhou, Twenty Miles. Little brother, what's your name? ”
"My name is Sima Yi!" The man replied weakly. (To be continued......)
